Setting PBR Materials

After the PBR ability of the 3D viewer is turned on, you can set the desired materials into PBR materials. The PBR material best suits for presenting Metal or Leather.

The conversion methods described below can be utilized to the contents before iClone V6 in order to increase the realism of objects by converting their traditional materials into PBR compatible ones.

There are 4 ways to switch between Traditional and PBR shading:

• By Material

• By Selection
• By Project
